Meet the Teacher Blogger Linky! #teacherbloggers

I'm linking up with Stephanie at Falling into First for Meet the Teacher Blogger link party!  Blogging during lunch - woohoo (well I started during lunch)!




Quick bio - I'm Allyson at Going Strong in 2nd Grade.  I am 24 (25 in 10 days!) and I'm in my 4th year of teaching 2nd grade - I absolutely LOVE 2nd grade!  I even did my student teaching in 2nd grade so I was so happy when I landed this job!  



THESE ARE A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS...
Tervis Tumblers, Disney, Coke Zero, Red Robin, Disney Jim Shore, Christmas


 IF YOU WEREN'T A TEACHER, WHAT WOULD YOU WANT TO BE?
An interior designer...I love that I get to do that as a teacher too!

THREE LITTLE WORDS THAT DESCRIBE YOU.
organized, loyal, creative
 
FINISH THE SENTENCE, "________,  SAID NO TEACHER EVER!!"
"I love assessments!"
 

Q: IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY AND YOU CAN INVITE ANYONE {DEAD OR ALIVE} TO THE PARTY. WHO ARE YOU INVITING?
Julie Andrews, Michael Strahan, and I've got so many more hopping around in my head I can't list them all!
Q: IF SOMEONE WROTE A BOOK ABOUT YOUR LIFE, WHAT WOULD BE THE TITLE?
Artsy Artsy (per one of my children)

 Q:YOU GET TO PICK ONE SUPERPOWER. WHAT IS IT?
The ability to be able to be like an octopus and do lots of things at one time like that Octopus on that Swiffer commercial from a few years ago!

Q: WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE QUOTE OR SAYING?
Here lately - "Lord, show me the way & I'll do the work" - Deanna Jump 

Q: IF YOU HAD TO SING ONE SONG ON AMERICAN IDOL, WHAT WOULD IT BE? 
"Let it Go" 
 Q: ARE YOU A MORNING PERSON OR A NIGHT OWL?
morning person
Q: WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE RESOURCE THAT YOU'VE CREATED IN YOUR TPT SHOP?
Wish I could pick!  I LOVED my first unit - The Polar Express unit I created for Polar Express Day last year, but then I also loved my 2nd unit on the Winter Olympics.  There is something I love about each product I create so it's hard to pick one!

Q: SHARE SOMETHING WE MIGHT NOT KNOW ABOUT YOU! 
I can't stand butter beans (lima beans)!  So I have a hard time convincing my kids to eat them after reading/watching A Bad Case of Stripes.  When I was in preschool my babysitter forced me to eat butter beans one day for lunch and I couldn't take my nap until I had eaten all of them.  I sat there and cried and cried.  I guess I finally ate them all, but I wouldn't come within 10 miles of them for years.  Now I will eat them in soup or in other dishes, but definitely NOT by themselves!

  1. What a funny story about butter beans! I hate them because my parents always had a garden when I was a little girl. One of my chores was to shell the butter beans and I HATED doing it! Now, I can't stand the bean! Thanks for sharing about yourself!
